    Democrat Representative Alcee Hasting’s sponsorship of HR 645 which would establish national FEMA camps on military installations certainly gives one pause.

    The text and summary of the bill is here.

    Now, on the face of things, HR 645 is innocuous enough but read how the bill can be swung to set up internment camps using the Department of Homeland Security and the United Sates military.

    I don’t trust the crooked Alcee Hastings and this FEMA camp proposal needs to go away.

    African American Congressman Alcee Hastings Apologizes for Racist Sarah Palin Comments

    September 30, 2008 /
    Hastings is a shining pillar of the Liberal Left. The Florida Democrat, a former federal district judge, was acquitted of conspiring to solicit a bribe from criminal defendants in 1982. But after a jury found attorney William Borders guilty of being his co-conspirator, Hastings was impeached and removed from the federal bench by Congress in 1989.

    Florida Congressman Alcee Hastings has apologized for comments he made about Alaska Governor and GOP Vice President nominee Sarah Palin.

    An African-American congressman from Florida is apologizing for his comment that black and Jewish voters should not support Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin because “anybody toting guns and stripping moose don’t care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks.”

    “I regret the comments I made last Tuesday that were not smart and certainly not relevant to hunters or sportsmen,” Rep. Alcee Hastings said in a statement issued Monday.

    Last week, at a panel on the shared agenda of Jewish and African-American Democrats during the annual conference of the National Jewish Democratic Council, Hastings told attendees what he intended to tell his Jewish constituents about the importance of supporting Sen. Obama in November’s presidential election. “If Sarah Palin isn’t enough of a reason for you to get over whatever your problem is with Barack Obama, then you damn well had better pay attention,” Hastings said last week. “Anybody toting guns and stripping moose don’t care too much about what they do with Jews and blacks. So, you just think this through,” he added.

    If Hasting had been a Republican Congressman, every interest group in the United States would be pushing for his resignation. But, because Hasting is black he gets a pass for outrageously racist comments.

    Amazing……
